I'm going to cheat.
A Child's Garden of Verses by Robert Louis Stevenson because they were my very bestest favorites when I was tiny.
The Phantom Tollbooth by Norman Juster because the riddles and twists of absurdity are great every time - in context and out.
And...
Flashman by George Macdonald Fraser for the adult version of absurd humor in a story with riddles and plot twists and plenty of fun.
What do you think?
Awww, yes, The Phantom Tollbooth! I haven't read the other two but will check them out. :)

My FF @ Donnie Darko Girl
Did you read The Search for Delicious by Natalie Babbitt? Kind of a cross between the Phantom Tollbooth and the Princess Bride. I think it was a Newbery too.
DeleteI haven't. I'm with Kristen - my TBR has doubled as well, lol. :)
DeleteThe advantage of Babbitt is that it reads really quickly. On the TBR and then almost as quickly off!
DeleteI feel like I'm missing out on so many great books after this FF! My TBR list has doubled with all of these new additions, including all of these!
ReplyDeleteFollowed back on GFC and BlogLovin'. Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend!
Thank you. Yes, a growing TBR pile is a hazard of reading too much!
DeleteA Child's Garden of Verses is a good choice. :)
